1 Samuel 11
1 And Nahash the Ammonite cometh up, and encampeth against Jabesh-Gilead, and all the men of Jabesh say unto Nahash, 'Make with us a covenant, and we serve thee.'
Sahp malem se tukun ma inge, Nahash, tokosra lun mwet Ammon, el us mwet mweun lal ac som kuhlusya acn Jabesh su oan in facl Gilead. Na mwet in acn Jabesh elos fahk nu sel Tokosra Nahash, “Orala sie oakwuk ku inmasrlosr, na kut fah orekma nu sum.”
2 And Nahash the Ammonite saith unto them, 'For this I covenant with you, by picking out to you every right eye — and I have put it a reproach on all Israel.'
Tokosra Nahash el fahk, “Nga ac oru oakwuk se inmasrlosr, tuh meet liki, nga ac tipalla atronmotowos layen layot tuh in mwe akmwekin nu sin mwet Israel nukewa.”
3 And the elders of Jabesh say to him, 'Let us alone seven days, and we send messengers into all the border of Israel: and if there is none saving us — then we have come out unto thee.'
Mwet kol lun mwet Jabesh elos fahk, “Soano len itkosr tuh kut in supwalik kas nu fin acn Israel nufon. Fin wanginna mwet ku in kasrekut, na kut ac fah filikutwot nu inpoum.”
4 And the messengers come to Gibeah of Saul, and speak the words in the ears of the people, and all the people lift up their voice and weep;
Na ke mwet utuk kas elos tuku nu Gibeah, acn ma Saul el muta we, ac fahkak ma inge, mwet uh mutawauk tung ac asor.
5 and lo, Saul hath come after the herd out of the field, and Saul saith, 'What — to the people, that they weep?' and they recount to him the words of the men of Jabesh.
Ke pacl se inge Saul el tufahna folok inimae me, wi cow natul, ac el siyuk sin mwet uh, “Mea se? Efu ku mwet uh tung?” Na elos fahk nu sel ma mwet Jabesh elos fahk ah.
6 And the Spirit of God doth prosper over Saul, in his hearing these words, and his anger burneth greatly,
Ke Saul el lohng ma inge, ngunin God tuku ke ku nu facl ac el arulana foloyak.
7 and he taketh a couple of oxen, and cutteth them in pieces, and sendeth through all the border of Israel, by the hand of the messengers, saying, 'He who is not coming out after Saul and after Samuel — thus it is done to his oxen;' and the fear of Jehovah falleth on the people, and they come out as one man.
Saul el eis lukwa cow uh ac sipsipikya nu ke ip srisrik pukanten, ac sang mwet utuk kas in usalik nu in facl Israel nufon. Ac elos akkalemye nu sin mwet nukewa, fahk ouinge, “Kutena mwet fin tia welul Saul ac Samuel nu ke mweun uh, ac fah orek ouinge nu ke cow natul uh!” Mwet Israel elos sensen ke ma LEUM GOD El ac oru uh, pwanang elos nukewa fahsreni ke inse sefanna.
8 And he inspecteth them in Bezek, and the sons of Israel are three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
Pisen mwet su toeni nu yorol Saul in acn Bezek, oasr tolfoko tausin mwet Israel ac tolngoul tausin mwet Judah.
9 And they say to the messengers who are coming, 'Thus do ye say to the men of Jabesh-Gilead: To-morrow ye have safety — by the heat of the sun;' and the messengers come and declare to the men of Jabesh, and they rejoice;
Ac elos fahk nu sin mwet utuk kas Jabesh me, “Kowos som ac fahk nu sin mwet lowos an lah meet liki infulwen len lutu, elos ac fah moliyukla.” Ke mwet Jabesh elos lohng kas inge, elos engan ma lulap,
10 and the men of Jabesh say [to the Ammonites], 'To-morrow we come out unto you, and ye have done to us according to all that [is] good in your eyes.'
ac elos fahk nu sel Tokosra Nahash, “Lutu kut ac fah srasrapo nu sum, ac kom ku in oru kutena ma kom lungse oru nu sesr.”
11 And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that Saul putteth the people in three detachments, and they come into the midst of the camp in the morning-watch, and smite Ammon till the heat of the day; and it cometh to pass that those left are scattered, and there have not been left of them two together.
Ke fong sac, Saul el kitalik mwet mweun lal nu ke u tolu. Toang in len tok ah, elos utyak nu nien aktuktuk lun mwet Ammon uh ac mweunelos nwe ke sun infulwen len, ac elos onelosla. Mwet su painmoulla sin mwet Ammon elos kaingelik, kais sie ke inkanek lal sifacna.
12 And the people say unto Samuel, 'Who is he that saith, Saul doth reign over us! give ye up the men, and we put them to death.'
Na mwet Israel elos fahk nu sel Samuel, “Ku pia mwet ma fahk mu Saul el tia fal in tokosra facsr uh? Usalosme ac kut fah onelosla!”
13 And Saul saith, 'There is no man put to death on this day, for to-day hath Jehovah wrought salvation in Israel.'
A Saul el fahk, “Wangin mwet ac fah anwuki misenge, tuh pa inge len se LEUM GOD El molela mwet Israel.”
14 And Samuel saith unto the people, 'Come and we go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there;'
Na Samuel el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Lela kut nukewa in som nu Gilgal, ac sifilpa fahkak lah Saul el tokosra lasr.”
15 and all the people go to Gilgal, and cause Saul to reign there before Jehovah in Gilgal, and sacrifice there sacrifices of peace-offerings before Jehovah, and there Saul rejoiceth — and all the men of Israel — very greatly.
Ke ma inge elos nukewa som nu Gilgal, ac fahkak in acn mutal we lah Saul el tokosra lalos. Elos oru mwe kisa in akinsewowo, ac Saul ac mwet nukewa elos arulana engan ac akfulatye len sac.
